Sierra Nevada is its own animal. It’s like the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory of breweries. It is not in downtown Asheville. If it’s open in May I would start there and get in line before it opens. Eat lunch there. The food and outdoor space is excellent. Also, you can do your own self guided tour through the facility if you go up the stairs in the main bar area. At least you could before Covid.

New Belgium is not downtown either. If you go there also hit Wedge across the river.

Some of my favorites are the original Asheville breweries but again these you’ll need to drive to: Pisgah (in Black Mountain) and Highland

Downtown: Burial, Wicked Weed, Funkatorium (Wicked Weed funky and sour beers), Bhramari, Catawba, Hi-Wire and Greenman. That should be more than enough. Be prepared to wait (especially at the ones I listed first). The weather will be really nice and tons of people will be out.

The wife and I went in October 2020. I would say my top 3 would be: DISSOLVR, Bhramari, and Burial.

The wait to get in Wicked Weed was 3-4 hours and in my opinion the food there was better than the beer. Now the Funkatorium seemed cool but we couldn't make it out there.
